Its not ENGL that is a piece of **** man, its just that he needs a retube. I should slap Young Angus for not getting one yet.

I know man i deserve a slap but its all finantial issues i tell ya! Its not easy being in a difficult final year of uni and not being able to work enough to earn the money you need to pay for stuff like this. To get the guitar ive had to sell a few things and work extra hard as it is, but dont worry ill definitely retube it soon....not that ive ever said that before

Hey Angus..Have you ever considered getting An Attenuator for that.. I mean it would be hard to push the tubes in something thats 120 watts afterall..?
At least try that before you sell her..and if you already have then pleasre accept my apology and disregars this statement..

Yeah ive definitely considered attenuators, and plan to get one someday. But i think this amps preamp is supposed to be pretty complicated and hence gets fantastic tone without using power tube distortion as well. All will be revealed when i retube the beast
